I'm not 100% sure ... I think it's gcode. I delivered the file as SVG, but I assume the person operating it and setting it up must have converted it -- they're from Russia and there was a bit of a language barrier so it wasn't entirely clear Also, @codeandwood recently got a robot arm and has been experimenting with it, maybe he knows about the data format: https://warpcast.com/codeandwood/0x237d5b65 (although maybe he's doing even more custom controlling)

Industrial robot arms are kinda scary, you also don't wanna arm-wrestle this clumsy-looking thing ;-) (in fact I don't even know if I could arm-wrestle my Axidraw plotter hahaha, the motors seem pretty strong)

I especially like the part at about 2:50, when the robot does the clicky thing to reload the paint in the Bosca marker :D

thanks! I was looking at art deco architecture for inspiration

SDFs! :-) Constructive solid geometry using cubes and blocks and cube-shaped holes and repetitions, etc, taking inspiration from Art Deco architecture SDFs: https://iquilezles.org/articles/distfunctions/

My "rayhatcher" program outputs the lines in random order. Usually, before plotting, I'll optimize this line order (minimize pen-up distance) using an external pre-processing tool (such as VPype), the output is the same but it can reduce plotting time by 3-4x. When I collaborated with this guy with the robot arm (part of an art installation in Moscow, I never saw it IRL), I assumed that the path-planning for a robot arm would need to be more complicated than that and he'd apply his own optimization. Which turned out to be an incorrect assumption ... 😅

https://somonoco.com I created an NPM package that lets you use squircles and smooth corners on HTML elements. Available for TypeScript, React and Svelte.

No it's all good, if people want to do GENUARY using AI, by all means go for it. I just think you're not getting the most out of GENUARY that way. I also have a bunch of my own personal opinions, which are somewhat stronger, and should definitely not be thought as "official" GENUARY policy.

hmyeah it was a funny joke last year when one person did it, other people also did funny things for genuary, it's no longer funny if everybody does the same thing it's not really the reason why I'm organizing Genuary though, to encourage others to ask a simulacrum of everybody else's non-consensually harvested and compressed cleverness to do your homework for you "we build code that makes beautiful things" making generative art is an elusive skill that you get to train once per year during Genuary every single year, I have seen EVERY CODER LEVEL UP, if they took Genuary seriously and that is what it's for by recommending people to use AI instead you are taking away that opportunity at least for some beginners, who would otherwise have taken the trouble to learn something new there is no reason to do this to Genuary any more than there is a reason to do Inktober using AI, but at least I hope you can see the useless there? at least with Inktober most prompts are figurative, so it makes slightly more sense
